< Bilowgii 26 >

1 Waxaa dhulkii ka dhacday abaar, oo aan ahayn tii hore oo waagii Ibraahim dhacday. Markaasaa Isxaaq u kacay xagga Abimeleg oo ahaa boqorkii reer Falastiin xagga Geraar.
Then, when a famine arose over the land, after that barrenness which had happened in the days of Abraham, Isaac went to Abimelech, king of the Palestinians, in Gerar.
2 Rabbiguna wuu u muuqday isaga, oo wuxuu ku yidhi, Xagga Masar ha u dhaadhicin, laakiinse deg dhulka aan kuu sheegi doono.
And the Lord appeared to him, and he said: “Do not descend into Egypt, but rest in the land that I will tell you,
3 Dhulkan qariib ahaan u deg, oo anna waan kula jiri doonaa, oo waan ku barakayn doonaa; waayo, adiga iyo farcankaaga ayaan dalalkan oo dhan siin doonaa, oo waxaan adkayn doonaa dhaartii aan ugu dhaartay aabbahaa Ibraahim.
and sojourn in it, and I will be with you, and I will bless you. For to you and to your offspring I will give all these regions, completing the oath that I promised to Abraham your father.
4 Farcankaagana waxaan u tarmin doonaa sida xiddigaha samada, oo waxaan farcankaaga siin doonaa dalalkan oo dhan, farcankaagayna quruumaha dunida oo dhammu ku barakoobi doonaan;
And I will multiply your offspring like the stars of heaven. And I will give to your posterity all these regions. And in your offspring all the nations of the earth will be blessed,
5 maxaa yeelay, Ibraahim baa addeecay codkaygii, wuxuuna dhawray wixii la ii dhawri lahaa, iyo xukummadaydii, iyo amarradaydii, iyo qaynuunnadaydii.
because Abraham obeyed my voice, and kept my precepts and commandments, and observed the ceremonies and the laws.”
6 Isxaaqna wuxuu degganaa Geraar:
And so Isaac remained in Gerar.
7 oo dadkii meeshaas joogay baa naagtiisii ka warsaday, oo wuxuu yidhi, Iyadu waa walaashay: waayo, wuu ka cabsaday inuu yidhaahdo, Waa naagtaydii, oo wuxuu isyidhi, waaba intaasoo ay dadka meeshanu igu dilaan Rebeqah aawadeed, maxaa yeelay, way suurad quruxsanayd.
And when he was questioned by the men of that place about his wife, he answered, “She is my sister.” For he was afraid to confess her to be his mate, thinking that perhaps they would put him to death because of her beauty.
8 Markuu halkaas wakhti dheer joogay ayaa Abimeleg oo ahaa boqorkii reer Falastiin daaqad ka fiiriyey, oo uu arkay Isxaaq oo naagtiisii Rebeqah la qooqaya.
And when very many days had passed, and he had remained in the same place, Abimelech, king of the Palestinians, gazing through a window, saw him being playful with Rebekah, his wife.
9 Markaasuu Abimeleg Isxaaq u yeedhay, oo yidhi, Hubaal iyadu waa naagtaadii. De sidee baad ku tidhi, Waa walaashay? Isxaaqna wuxuu ku yidhi, Maxaa yeelay, waxaan is-idhi, Waaba intaasoo aad u dhimatid iyada aawadeed.
And summoning him, he said: “It is clear that she is your wife. Why did you falsely claim her to be your sister?” He answered, “I was afraid, lest I might die because of her.”
10 Oo Abimelegna wuxuu ku yidhi, War waa maxay waxan aad nagu samaysay? Mid dadka ka mid ahu dhib yaraan buu ula jiifsan lahaa naagtaada, oo kolkaasaad eed noo soo jiidi lahayd.
And Abimelech said: “Why have you burdened us? Someone from the people could have lain with your wife, and you would have brought a great sin upon us.” And he instructed all the people, saying,
11 Markaasaa Abimeleg wuxuu dadkii oo dhan ku amray, oo yidhi, Kii ninkan ama naagtiisa taabta hubaal naftaa laga qaadi doonaa.
“Whoever will touch the wife of this man will die a death.”
12 Isxaaqna dhulkaasuu wax ku beertay, isla sannaddiina wuxuu helay boqol laab; Rabbiguna wuu barakeeyey isagii.
Then Isaac sowed in that land, and he found, in that same year, one hundredfold. And the Lord blessed him.
13 Ninkiina wuu weynaaday, oo hor u maray, ilaa uu noqday nin aad u weyn,
And the man was enriched, and he continued prospering as well as increasing, until he became very great.
14 wuxuuna lahaa adhi iyo lo', iyo addoommo fara badan; markaasay reer Falastiin ka masayreen.
Likewise, he had possessions of sheep and of herds, and a very large family. Because of this, the Palestinians envied him,
15 Ceelashii addoommada aabbihiis qodeen oo dhan waagii aabbihiis Ibraahim noolaa ayay reer Falastiin hore u awdeen oo ciid uga buuxiyeen.
so, at that time, they obstructed all the wells that the servants of his father Abraham had dug, filling them with soil.
16 Abimelegna wuxuu Isxaaq ku yidhi, Naga tag; waayo, aad baad nooga xoog badan tahay.
It reached a point where Abimelech himself said to Isaac, “Move away from us, for you have become very much more powerful than we.”
17 Markaasaa Isxaaq halkaas ka tegey, oo dooxadii Geraar degay, halkaasuuna joogay.
And departing, he then went toward the torrent of Gerar, and he dwelt there.
18 Kolkaasaa Isxaaq mar kale qoday ceelashii biyaha oo ay qodeen waagii aabbihiis Ibraahim noolaa, waayo, reer Falastiin baa awday markii Ibraahim dhintay ka dib, oo wuxuu magacyadoodii u bixiyey magacyadii aabbihiis Ibraahim u bixiyey.
Again, he dug up other wells, which the servants of his father Abraham had dug, and which, after his death, the Philistines had formerly obstructed. And he called them by the same names that his father had called them before.
19 Markaasaa addoommadii Isxaaq dooxadii qodeen, oo waxay ka heleen ceel durdur ah.
And they dug in the torrent, and they found living water.
20 Markaasaa xoolojirradii reer Geraar la dirireen xoolojirradii Isxaaq, iyagoo leh, Biyaha annagaa leh. Ceelka magiciisiina wuxuu u bixiyey Ceseq, maxaa yeelay, way la dirireen isagii.
But in that place also the shepherds of Gerar argued against the shepherds of Isaac, by saying, “It is our water.” For this reason, he called the name of the well, because of what had happened, ‘Calumny.’
21 Ceel kalena way qodeen, oo kaasna way kula dirireen, markaasuu magiciisii u bixiyey Sitnah.
Then they dug up yet another one. And over that one also they fought, and he called it, ‘Enmity.’
22 Kolkaasuu meeshaas ka guuray, oo wuxuu qoday ceel kale; kaasna kulama ay diririn; magiciisiina wuxuu u bixiyey Rexobod, oo wuxuu yidhi, Haatan Rabbigu meel buu noo banneeyey, oo dalka waannu ku badnaynaa.
Advancing from there, he dug another well, over which they did not contend. And so he called its name, ‘Latitude,’ saying, “Now the Lord has expanded us and caused us to increase across the land.”
23 Markaasuu halkaas ka tegey, oo wuxuu u kacay Bi'ir Shebac.
Then he ascended from that place into Beersheba,
24 Oo isla habeenkaas ayaa Rabbigu u muuqday isagii oo ku yidhi, Waxaan ahay aabbahaa Ibraahim Ilaahiisa. Ha cabsan, waayo, waan kula jiraa, oo waan ku barakayn doonaa, farcankaagana waan tarmin doonaa addoonkaygii Ibraahim aawadiis.
where the Lord appeared to him on the same night, saying: “I am the God of Abraham your father. Do not be afraid, for I am with you. I will bless you, and I will multiply your offspring because of my servant Abraham.”
25 Kolkaasuu halkaas ka dhisay meel allabari, oo magaca Rabbiga ku baryootamay, halkaas buuna teendhadiisii ka dhisay, markaasaa addoommadii Isxaaq halkaas ceel ka qodeen.
And so he built an altar there. And he invoked the name of the Lord, and he stretched out his tent. And he instructed his servants to dig a well.
26 Dabadeedna Abimeleg iyo saaxiibkiis Axusad, iyo Fiikol oo ahaa madaxda ciidankiisa ayaa Geraar ka tegey oo Isxaaq u kacay.
When Abimelech, and Ahuzzath, his friend, and Phicol, the leader of the military, had arrived from Gerar to that place,
27 Markaasaa Isxaaq ku yidhi, Maxaad iigu timaadeen, waabad i neceb tihiine, oo aad iska kay erideene?
Isaac said to them, “Why have you come to me, a man whom you hate, and whom you have expelled from among you?”
28 Oo waxay yidhaahdeen, Caddaan baannu u aragnay in Rabbigu kula jiro; oo waxaannu nidhi, Annaga iyo adiga dhaaru ha inoo dhexayso oo aynu axdi dhiganno,
And they responded: “We saw that the Lord is with you, and therefore we said: Let there be an oath between us, and let us initiate a pact,
29 inaadan wax na yeelayn, sidii annana aannan kuu taaban, oo aannan waxba kuugu samayn wanaag mooyaane, oo aannu nabad kuugu dirnay. Adigu hadda waxaad tahay kan Rabbigu barakeeyey.
so that you may not do us any kind of harm, just as we have touched nothing of yours, and have not caused any injury to you, but with peace we released you, augmented by the blessing of the Lord.”
30 Diyaafad buuna u sameeyey, wayna cuneen oo cabbeen.
Therefore, he made them a feast, and after the food and drink,
31 Kolkaasay aroor hore kaceen, oo isu dhaardhaarteen: markaasaa Isxaaq iska diray, iyana nabad bay kaga ambabbaxeen.
arising in the morning, they swore to one another. And Isaac sent them away peacefully to their own place.
32 Oo isla maalintaas ayay addoommadii Isxaaq yimaadeen, oo ay uga warrameen ceelkii ay qodeen, oo waxay ku yidhaahdeen, Biyaannu helnay.
Then, behold, on the same day the servants of Isaac came, reporting to him about a well which they had dug, and saying: “We have found water.”
33 Markaasuu u bixiyey Shebcaah; sidaas daraaddeed magaaladaas magaceeda waxaa ilaa maantadan la yidhaahdaa Bi'ir Shebac.
Therefore, he called it, ‘Abundance.’ And the name of the city was established as ‘Beersheba,’ even to the present day.
34 Ceesaw markuu afartan sannadood jiray ayuu guursaday Yuhuudiid ina Be'eerii kii reer Xeed, iyo Basmad ina Eeloon kii reer Xeed.
In truth, at forty years of age, Esau took wives: Judith, the daughter of Beeri, the Hittite, and Basemath, the daughter of Elon, of the same place.
35 Kuwaasuna Isxaaq iyo Rebeqah ayay caloolxumo geliyeen.
And they both offended the mind of Isaac and Rebekah.
